yeh it will be mainly for me, but the old dears will need to come in it from time to time so a 5 door is almost a must, atleast a spacious 3 door maybe. and a little bootspace for pigeon baskets and golf clubs

Here we go again.... New Fiats are not shit and prone to problems as the old ones.. they've actually pulled their act together and have reliable and safe cars... ive just bought one myself... i actually test drove a 1.4turbo bravo as they didnt have the punto at the time... The Tjet is full of smiles
